Pallas
The Wedge
Genre: Prog Rock
3.25 out of 5
It should come as no surprise that this album, with it’s eyes and aim so transfixed on commercial success (within the parameters that prog-rock can sustain) gets a higher rating than their previous one. I am only human. I am occasionally susceptible to that sort of crass commercialism.
Trouble is, this time I’m not sure what Pallas wants to convey and they aren’t up to the skill level of Marillion or Rush or even Genesis circa 86 and those guys own this lane.
So this is just flat. And some of it is just insipid and bereft of ideas (“Imagination”).
